Quitting smoking can be quite a task and although I believe it is all dependent on your will power, there is a research team that believes the prevalent methods to curtail smoking habits are handy, even the computer based programmes. In a time of dire economic crisis, healthcare programmes that demand substantial money can rip you apart and if your will power isn’t strong enough, it is best to stick to web-based or computer programmes. It is not just the money part; the effectiveness is also based on the fact that such programmes offer more privacy even when compared to telephonic consultancies. An estimate reveals that 9.9% people who quit smoking after taking help from a web-based programme completed one year.
This rate is 1.7% higher when compared to the category of people who tried to quit on their own. The only problem is that people doubt the effectiveness of such programmes and therefore fail to commit to such options but, the researchers believe these programmes deserve a fair share of approval.
